My current PU is a 2020 F350. I could NOT get the dealer to come up with a plain old basic rig. All they would present were PUs full of gadgetry and electric everything to run the price up. All I wanted was a F250, the smaller V8 w/10 speed, cruise and tow package. So I went to Ford's site...

Or if Harbor Freight started selling vehicles.... You couldn't get parts and when you tried to use the extended warranty the SKU had changed by one digit so the identical item wasn't available any more

Likewise, I find that habit unusual. ;)

I always wanted to check that out but was never in that area with time on my hands.

My brother does that, ending every other sentence with ..."and stuff" and stuff like that. (wink). I have had a pet peeve for filler words that mean nothing. For me the worst is 'f***in' this, 'f***en' that and more because I have to actively listen and filter closely to make out what they are...

When I lived in the Nebraska Sandhills I made a drive through crossing on Pine Creek (how many pine creeks are there?) at no small effort. It filled back in annually. So I just quit. Teasing, teasing. I would've loved to have a case or two of dynamite but that stuff is so hard to get. And...

Amazing power with all that weight. I suspect maintenance folk for the locomotive and the way didn't appreciate spinning wheels.

That's amazing. I've had that happen a bunch of times and any store that made that mistake sold it to me at the posted price. Never have a had a store refuse to sell something that was their own mistake.

The rectangular filter fits into a slot so anything on top of it gats 'scraped' off as you pull it out.

Yup. My 2020 F350 right now has a bunch of mouse stuff above the cabin filter. If I pull the filter (slide out-slide in) all the stuff on top of it will fall into the fan directly below it. Then comes a major tear down under the dash on the passenger side. The mice can't get in or out through...

How about a TOPO:

Each parcel is 20/40/80 (there are a very few exceptions of 5/10) and the logging trail meanders its way along the canyon from the bottom to the top. A 900 to 1000 climb. Each parcel it goes through has an easement allowing for access to landowners and emergency services further back. It is not...

You ever have success taking a picture of a grade? Up or down, it doesn't work.

Even our dogs don't eat them. Just not enough meat.

Nope. No inconvenience for us, anyway. It does tack on 15 minutes each way to go that 1.75 miles of logging trail. And it mostly keeps snoopers and 'cruisers' away. Not long ago a small parcel was put on the market pointing off from a 'Y' with the RE broker's sign and pointer. Ever since then...
